Fulham 'simply the best novel ever written'
This week, we are asking you to share your stories and photos about why you fell in love with is a selection of your submissions: Jeremy: Fulham have been my club for 67 years, since my brothers took me to see us against Tottenham when I was five. Both were Spurs fans, but I fell in love with Haynes, Hill, Cohen, Macedo et al. Tommy Trinder and Bryan Robson signed my matchday programme. From a few points from relegation to non-league to an FA Cup and a Europa League final, to Ireland, to Europe, I have no interest in any other club. Fulham is simply the best novel ever written. Mario: At the 1975 FA Cup final, my brother and I got to choose who we wanted to support. Seeing as he's not a big football fan he opted out. I chose Fulham, as Bobby Moore was playing for them, and my mum chose West Ham, because he used to play for them. Fast forward a year, I'm now at secondary school and three new friends, who all supported Fulham invited me to go along to the next home game. Well, 50 years later and I'm forever Fulham.

Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A toddler was bitten by a dog at an East Lothian festival venue with organisers now issuing advice. The child was with their parents at Fringe By The Sea in North Berwick on Wednesday, before being treated by medics after the incident. Organisers have been in contact with the parents since, and have asked dog owners to keep animals on leads at all time and 'keep them under control'. They've also requested that if a dog is uncomfortable with crowds, young children or other dogs, they are kept away from the venue. The festival runs from August 1 to 10, and provides an alternative to Edinburgh's Fringe. From Rory Steel, Director of Fringe By The Sea, told Edinburgh Live: "Our first aid tended to the little girl who was bitten by a dog on Wednesday, and have been in contact with the parents since. "While we welcome well-behaved dogs to Fringe By The Sea, they must be on leads and under the owner's control at all times. If dogs are uncomfortable with crowds, young children or other dogs, we request that owners do not bring them onto site." Fringe by the Sea dates back to 2008, and 'celebrates the people, businesses and organisations that make East Lothian unique.

Recognised as the National Winner of the Outstanding Cultural Festival at the 2023 Scottish Thistle Awards, it continues to grow as a must-visit celebration of arts and culture. "Unlike many events that focus solely on headline acts, we embrace all forms of art—from music and comedy to literature, theatre, film, and beyond. Our festival is a celebration of creativity in all its forms." Police Scotland have been approached for comment.
